Plastic Cisterns

Plastic Cisterns are a low cost alternative when installing a toilet, as most cisterns can be bought from Low Cost Plumbing Supplies for under £30. This presents great value to those who only need to replace a cistern and not the entire toilet.

In older properties, cisterns are often mounted high on the wall, with the toilet underneath. These are flushed using a cord that hangs from the cistern, causing the water to flow down a connecting pipe and flush the toilet. This type of set-up is now rare, but many people who are restoring older properties are keeping this system in place because they feel it adds to the character of the property. The good news is that these cisterns can be replaced quickly and easily and you can therefore keep the look of this original feature in place.

Plastic toilet cisterns are also used in bigger projects, for example installing toilets in schools, offices and hospitals. Using this type of cistern is often cheaper than modern toilets and therefore can save contractors money on large projects. You’ll be pleased to know that you can place bulk orders on cisterns at the Low Cost Plumbing Supplies website, because we deal to both the trade and the public.
